The quote is from Leymah Gbowee, apparently.

@Arperum also, apparently that is the translation of the word ubuntu

Origami Robot

Ubuntu (philosophy)

Ubuntu ( ; ) is a Nguni Bantu term (literally, "human-ness") roughly translating to "human roughness." It is an idea from the Southern African region which means literally "human-ness," and is often translated as "humanity towards others," but is often used in a more philosophical sense to mean "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity". In Southern Africa, it has come to be used as a term for a kind of humanist philosophy, ethic or ideology, also known as Ubuntuism or Hunhuism (the latter after the corresponding Shona term) propagated in the Africanization (...

Semi-related:

On September 22, the new name, "Joomla!," was announced. It is the anglicised spelling of the Swahili word jumla meaning "all together" or "as a whole" which also has a similar meaning in at least Arabic and Urdu

From the original 2048 it was rather easy to tell which numbers I'm combining - after all, it says so right on the tile. But now with doge2048 there is much doge. What doge is 16? What is 32? Is this doge secretly 2048 and the game actually keeps going beyond that? very confuse wow
